Pizzeria 150

Pizzeria 150 is a pizzeria at Via Nizza 29 on the edge of San Salvario, near Porta Nuova station in Turin, in Italy's Piedmont region. It is known for tegamino, the thick Turin-style pizza baked in a pan, which differs from the thin Neapolitan style and is a local variation worth trying. The tegamino is the signature dish and the reason most visitors come, with a soft, thick base and generous topping. Specific topping combinations are not itemised in the information gathered, so the menu on the website pizzeria150.com is the place to check. Menu prices have not been verified, but the price range is the lowest tier ($), in line with a casual pizzeria. The venue has a simple, informal character, with a busy and fairly noisy dining room at peak times, quick service and no dress code, which suits travellers wanting an inexpensive meal near the station. Drinks are not detailed in the data gathered, though beer is a common accompaniment to pizza in Turin. Opening hours are Tuesday to Sunday from 11:30AM to 2:30PM and from 6:30PM to midnight, and the pizzeria is closed on Monday, so it serves both lunch and dinner. Reservations are by phone on +39 011 1970 6319; booking is sensible for groups and for Friday and Saturday evenings, while lunch and early weekday dinners generally allow a shorter wait. Its position on Via Nizza makes it convenient for visitors arriving at or leaving from Porta Nuova, and it is within walking distance of the Valentino Park and the Po River promenades. Trying the tegamino here offers a useful point of comparison with the thinner pizzas served at other Turin pizzerias such as those in the centre.
